SD-FI-COPA Integration

Hi all,
When we create a billing docuement, after that it posts the cost of materials to the Cost Centre, PA & Balace Sheet Account.
As i am kinda new to this integration stuff, could you please explain what does the above postings mean & definations of that
Appreciate ur help
Thx,
Vinay

when the billing document gets created and saved, the whole process of 'outbound delivery' gets 'completed'. Basically SD module's journey kind of ends around here, with the 'invoice' in shape.Hereafter one can 'clear the accounts document ' .The posting incoming payments is basically putting the financial data in readymade shape for the FI guys to take over from here onwards. This data will be now processed into the G/L by the FI/CO people. Maybe it's a good idea, if you would also post the same query on the FI forum here and surely you would get a more copmprehensive explanation, as what actually happens to this data,once it gets created inside the invoice in SD module.
Hope this helps someway.
Thanks

CRM-COPA integration

Hi
I have a couple of requirements for CRM-COPA integration
1. The CRM system captures no of service calls attended by our franchises. This pertains to equipment maintenance. I want to flow this data to COPA i.e. the no of calls serviced by each franchise
2. When the CRM posts the service revenue to COPA, it uses RFC and posts automatically.. But, in the COPA document, the service material used in CRM is not captured... How can I populate this?
3. The consumables consumed during the service are also posted to R/3 using RFC. This triggers transaction MB1A-201 Mvt Type... I am posting this to cost ctr as well as to COPA simulataneously... i.e. statistically to cost ctr and real posting to COPA... I want to capture the MM Storage location field into one of chars of COPA.. How can I achieve this
Thanx in anticipation

Ajay Maheshwari

Hi Eugene
The issue is only one.. I have used bullet points as 1,2,3 for beter understanding of people......
I cant post three threads where one single question is broken into 3 parts.as people wont be able to understand the whole issue
What you said looks better in letter, but not in spirit.... All the 3 points are inter related, though the question is one

GL - COPA Integrated Planning

Hi,
I have maintained some planning data in COPA. I have also done the account determination of COPA value fields.
I have applied Integrated Planning ticks in the Fiscal year settings of Controlling Area.
However, when I run transfer of COPA planning to FI-GL, I am getting the following error:
"Due to the Customizing settings, no ledger will be updated
Message no. GI748"
Can anyone suggest how to resolve this issue?

Hi,
Error GI748 for CO-PA / NewGL planning data transfer is normally issued due to the inappropriate processing instruction specified in Trx.KE1Z (definition whether characteristic is to be retained or summarized).
Characteristics 'Company code' and 'Controlling area' must be always kept as retain in case of transfer to FI-GL. Boths needs to be filled in the selection criteria of KE1Z.
Please check your variant at Trx.KE1Z and see if this resolves the problem.
In addition, please implement note 1056459 and 1009299 (it they are not implemented via support package).
I hope it helps to resolve your issue
Kind Regards,
Vanessa Barth.

FI/MM - COPA Integration Scenarios

Dear Experts,
I am new with COPA and we are implementing it in out client. We need to integrate COPA with SD, FI/MM & PP.
I need to know what would be the general scenarios in FI/MM which would require FI/MM integration with COPA as it would clear my understanding and give me some starting point to initiate with COPA & FI/MM integration.
Thanks in Advance!
Regards,
Sapna

Hi Sapna,
1st Integration: SD-COPA:
Most of the values such as Revenue, discount and rebate will flow from SD to COPA (Apprx 75 to 80% of values) at the time of billing. Here we assign the SD condition type to COPA value fields.
2nd Integaration - FI/MM-COPA:
Certain costs such as Inventory revaluation and physical inventory difference from MM and specific expenses like marketing and sales commission from FI will also flow to COPA. For this, we need to crate FI/PA transfer structure and assign the related GL accounts in source and COPA value fields in Target.
3rd Integration - Cost Center - COPA
Usually, under/over absorbed cost will be transferred to COPA from cost centers through Assessment Cycle as part of month end activity. We maintain the list of sender cost centers which are having under/over absorbed cost and receiver combination of characteristics in COPA.
4th Integration - Product Costing - COPA
Production variance will be transferred to COPA from production orders through the PA transfer structure during the settlement process (KO88).
In PA transfer structure, we maintain production related cost elements in the source tab and assign it to relevant variance category in the target.
5th Integration: Internal Order/Any other orders - COPA
As like production orders, even internal orders and other others can be settled to COPA through PA transfer structure.

Differnece between capturing campaign actual cost using PS and using COPA

Hi Experts,
Could anyone tell me the exact difference between capturing campaign actual cost using PS and using COPA?
Thanks!

Hello,
as far I understand these are different objects. The campaign is transfered to the project system as a WBS element, which may be integrated into COPA as well. Please refer to the online help:
Account Assignment to Profitability Analysis - Campaign Management - SAP Library
As far I know the COPA integration may work using WBS elements, but may also work from the conditions created from a campaign or trade promotion.
best regards,
Johannes

Hi Ivor
Re: Implementation: ISU Biling COPA Integration
Excuse me Ivor Martin for jumping on the bandwagon, I am in the process of implementing ISU Biling COPA Integration. I do have the cookbook but it does not clarify certain things i would like you to help me with as follows:
1.Operating concern
I am busy widentifying characteristics to use from Billing document. My question is should I set up Opconcern as in pure COPA,i.e working from reporting structure & subsequent derivation of e.g profit center?
I would like to be certain about this. Please advice me also with any other information you dem relevant.
2.I would also like to know about the pros and cons of transferring updates if that is ok with you.
Thanks in advance.

Marketing Planning Planning and Actual Cost

Hi
We have a clinet requirement, where they want Marketing Planning functionality to be implemented. They want to use Budget Planning and Actual cost tracking functionality. Now as per my understanding we use SEM/BI for planning (Key Figure) and PS or COPA integration for Actual Cost Tracking.
Is my understanding correct and what are the steps required for the two. Client has currently implemented SEM/BI and ECC, but PS is not in scope. So we will have to capture Actual Cost using COPA.
Thanks & Regards

Integrated Planning in COPA using KEPM and loading of quantity to SOP

Hi,
We are in process of testing integrated planning in COPA using KEPM and loading of quantity to SOP (MC87) or Transfer Qty to SOP - KE1E. I created a planning level with basic information to plan quantity on product with Period/Year, Version, Plant, Product, Record Type (F), Unit Sales Qty.
Also created Planning Package & Planning Parameter with Planning layout and entered quantity for a material which creates a profitability segment with quantity update. The problem occurs when transferring to SOP the sales quantity either using MC87 or KE1E, it goes into a loop and times out. We tried using different parameters, but ended up with same result.
Are we missing some Config/steps here, any thoughts will help.
Satish

Hi,
You need to transfer COPA plan to inactive version of SOP through KE1E. Thereafter, in PP, the same is transfered to active version through MC78. Thereafter it is transferred to Demand Management through MC74.
Please check with your PP consultant.
Trust this helps. Please assign pts if useful

COPA and SL Integration

Hi Guys,
Is there any document explaining the integration between Account-based COPA and FI-SL?
Regards.

I am curious to know why. Because COPA will be used for purpose and I guess SL is not linked for any reason. In none of my past COPA projects they had to integrate the SL.

PCA Integration with COPA

Hi Gurus,
I need some document on PCA Integratiion with COPA.
This is urgent.
Thanks in advance
Surya

There is no PCA integration with COPA. Both PCA and COPA are basically receivers and do not pass on data to other modules.
Hence, any assessment / distributions you do in PCA is not reflected in COPA and similarly any top down distributions you do in COPA will not be reflected in PCA.
Both PCA and COPA receive data from the source module simulatneously. e.g. if you are doing an assessment of CC balances to COPA, it updates PCA and COPA simultaneously.

COPA Vs BPS (BI Integrated Planning)

Hi.
I would like to know if BPS or BI-Integrated planning replace the COPA module in SAP.
Cheers
Anand

Anand,
The COPA data that is extracted will be stored in the data warehouse layer of BI 7 and which can be accessed by a report in query designer in which the planing will happen.
The dtaa flows is like this:
1Enter and record all the business transactions in R/3 - various modules and components and transfer them to COPA.
2. Build COPA data source in R/3
3. Extact the COPA data to COPA DSO or Cube in Bi 7
4. Make a planning cube in BI 7.
5. Create aggregation levels, filters based on planning cube and actual cube.
6. Create planning functions to do perform planning calculations and apply business logic.
7. Create input ready query in query designer.
8. Launch the query and planning.
Also, since BPS is also present in BI 7 along with IP, you can do the planing in BPS component also, but any future functionalities will be delivered towards IP.

COPA and SD integration

Hi,
Please, could someone tell me if an user-exit exists to avoid a invoice go to PA???
Thanks!!!

Hi,
The probles is as follow:
Our customer wants post to PA in some cases and post to CO order in other cases, but the billing type is the same. The condition is: if a characteristic has a specific characteristic value, the document must post to CO order, in other case must post to PA. So, the KE4W isn´t valid.
As I said above, a substitution neither is valid, the FI document post to order, but a PA item is created !!
Thansks!!!
